Under everyone's attention, Su Tang ate a small bowl of rice and a small bowl of Bak Kut Teh.
Su Tang even burped!
Don't you eat when you come to the game!
Why did you eat at the game site! Don't you feel guilty!
Su Tang put down the bowl only to realize that everyone was looking at him, and some were secretly swallowing.
It's over, let's see what she sees.
She couldn't help it either, she hadn't eaten Bak Kut Teh for a long time, it was really delicious.
After she finishes eating, other people's meals are also cooked similarly.
Su Tang's meals were served over to him.
Because there are ten people in the competition, the meals for the judges must be small.
Su Tang watched helplessly, and brought a total of seven meals, one for each of the five judges, and one for Yin Fuyin.
Another copy was sent to the back wing.
Sure enough, from the first competition, there was this program.
The person in the back is really comfortable, you don't have to do anything, you can eat delicious food.
Unlike her, who eats the food she made herself and is surrounded by crowds!
The delicacies prepared by the ten contestants have already been served, and the judges are waiting for the judges to start scoring. Five contestants will advance directly.
Now the competition procedure has been simplified, but the excitement level has not decreased at all.
Because everyone present knows it.
The five people who have advanced will go directly to the palace to participate in the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet!
Also compete with others.
I don't know if it's luck or sadness!
No matter what the situation is, they all represent the people.
Because these chefs are all selected from among the people.
Among them, the ones with the highest status are those from Jingshui Tower, Zuixiao Tower, and Zhenxiu Restaurant.
Especially Huang Yuetong from the Delicacy Restaurant, many members of her family are imperial cooks.
But even so, everyone in the capital is an ordinary person.
There is no way to compare with those wealthy nobles.
That's why the people are anxious.
You said that these chefs represented the people in the competition, they must win, if they lost, it would be too shameful.
They are from the Central Plains!
How can you lose to Tubo!
Su Tang was still tidying up the table calmly amidst everyone's discussion.
She is almost obsessive-compulsive!
Every time I finish cooking, I must clean up the table, otherwise I will feel uncomfortable.
Most of the contestants present were also accustomed to Su Tang's style of doing things, so they cleaned up accordingly.
This relieved the tense atmosphere to a great extent.
But after they cleaned up the stove, they heard the judges on the stage suddenly speak.
"What kind of meat is this, why is it so fragrant? It's obviously meat, but it's not greasy at all?"
What kind of meat could it be, pork!
Besides pork, what other meat can be so fragrant and versatile!
Pork really smells delicious in everything, and Su Tang can eat three bowls in one go!
But Su Tang didn't eat it, the judges on the stage and Pei Fuyin, those who ate it were already stupid.
Especially Pei Fuyin, to be honest, even though he has come to the God of Cooking competition so many times, he will say a few words before the start of each competition to encourage the contestants.
But I really haven't tasted the dishes made by Su Tang.
After all, he is the host, so how can he go for dinner.
But this time is different!
They want to select the best chef to participate in the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, so they want a portion in the open and honest.
After receiving the Bak Kut Teh and rice, Fu Yin Pei's first feeling was that.
What kind of food is this
Simple stewed ribs
Who doesn't eat stewed ribs
The tea soup of Bak Kut Teh is clear, and it doesn’t look oily at all. The ribs are even in size, with four or five pieces inside, and there are whole shiitake mushrooms as ingredients next to it.
Among other things, this bowl of small cup is quite beautiful.
Not at all greasy.
It is very different from the pork ribs he usually eats.
After carrying it to the side, Mr. Pei could smell it. It was obviously very greasy pork ribs, but it also smelled of the unique fragrance of medicinal materials, and it was also mixed with the fragrance of tea.
have to say.
This dish is still really elegant.
There are only pork chops, shiitake mushrooms, and tea soup in this bowl, but it smells very rich in layers.
The judges next to him had already started eating, and Fu Yin Pei took a piece into his mouth.
The pork is endowed with a unique fragrance by the herbal medicine bag and tea bag. When you eat it, you can taste the sweetness of the pork. It melts in your mouth, which belongs to the sweetness of fresh meat.
In the eyes of many people, pork is either very greasy or overcooked.
Or it can be made meaty, anyway, it can be done in any way.
But it has never seen anything like this taste.
It is obviously pork, but it is not greasy at all, and it does not use a lot of condiments.
More of it is the aroma of meat, the fragrance of medicinal materials, and the unique taste of tea.
These complex flavors make the pork ribs not greasy or greasy, and taste refreshing and delicious, and the taste of pork itself can be best eaten.
Fu Yin Pei's taste buds were immediately conquered.
When he ate the first piece of ribs, he was still a bit reserved, but when he ate the second piece, he couldn't help it anymore, and he just bit down on the ribs.
Fortunately, the bone has been boiled off the bone, and it will fall off as soon as you bite.
It smells so good!
While eating, Pei Fuyin thought about the rice in bamboo tubes. He had eaten rice in bamboo tubes before, so he didn't know how it felt to match it this time.
But wait for the fragrance of the bamboo tube to combine with the fragrance of the good rice, and then pour a spoonful of Bak Kut Teh soup.
This one next time.
The aroma of bamboo, herbs, tea bags, rice, and meat are perfectly integrated.
This kind of combination is simply satisfying physically and mentally, and makes people happy physically and mentally. One spoonful after another, there is no way to stop.
After eating the Bak Kut Teh and rice in front of them, all the judges realized.
They actually ate up the bak kut teh!
There is no official dignity left.
However, he secretly took a look at Peifu Yin, and the two Shangshu lords.
Seeing that they also ate everything, I felt better. It's not that they are not reserved, it's just that the Bak Kut Teh is so delicious.
Hubu Shangshu slowly said: "The aroma of tea and medicinal materials can be so refreshing and memorable. Pork tastes sweet, rice is sweet, and there is also the fragrance of bamboo tubes. So the combination is so perfect."
Su Tang was embarrassed to hear that.
This is too exaggerated, but what the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance said is the truth, Bak Kut Teh is so delicious.
How long are the tea bags inside and the medicinal materials wrapped, when can the taste be infused, and when can the taste be infused without overdoing it.
It's all tricks.
After Su Tang's careful cooking, there is such a delicious meal that leaves people's lips and teeth lingering.
When everyone present saw this scene, they understood.
Su Tang must have advanced!
She is one of the five!
The rest of the people breathed a sigh of relief.
It's fine if Su Tang advances, as long as she advances, it doesn't matter if they advance later!
The comments of the contestants reached the ears of the common people.
Everyone couldn't help laughing.
They have never seen such a game!
How could there be opponents expecting Su Tang to win!
But the reality is that it happened!
Looks like a lot of fun.
The Hubu Shangshu and Libu Shangshu on the stage were finally relieved after eating.
With Su Tang's excellent craftsmanship, it's no wonder Hou Ye trusted her so much.
From this point of view, the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet five days later should not be a big deal.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Tang is at ease, she is used to it, okay
But the Bak Kut Teh is really good. She plans to make this dish tomorrow. Anyway, she still has the ingredients that come with it, and it is easy to make.
During the exciting competition, Su Tang has already started to wander the sky, thinking about what to eat tomorrow.
In the seventh round of the competition, there are now a total of ten people, and five people will be eliminated.
And Jing Liang, Zhu Jinyuan, Huang Yuetong, Su Tang, all of them were promoted.
Along with them, Li Chun, the chef of Fengshangguan, was also promoted.
He is the chef who made Qingcha Drunken Shrimp last time.
In this competition, he studied many novel dishes, so he was able to stand out among the crowd.
And everyone at the scene understood.
The five of them won not only this competition, but also the chance to enter the palace!
Regardless of the fact that everyone lives in the capital.
But the capital is also different from the capital.
Let’s not talk about the East City and the West City. Everyone knows the difference. After all, the capital is so big that it’s not in the same city. Prices can’t be the same, let alone housing prices.
But if you compare the East City with the inner city, forget it.
The inner city is where the imperial palace is located, and not all imperial palaces are the emperor's sleeping palace.
Behind it is the place where the emperor lives, rests, and entertains, which is commonly known as the harem.
The vestibule was used as the place where the emperor went to court, the emperor worked, and the courtiers worked.
The six ministries of the imperial court, the Hanlin Academy and other positions mostly work in the vestibule, and some work in the side hall, so I won’t talk about it.
If it is said that in the capital city, you can easily hold a person, that person is some kind of relative of an official.
In the east city, if you grab someone casually, it may be the official himself or the family member of the official.
As for the inner city, it goes without saying that the men who can enter are all officials of the court, and the women who can enter either have orders or are relatives of the emperor.
Sun Qiaoshan is an example. Her family took a carriage to the palace, and it was easy to come and go.
But ordinary people are different.
If you dare to look inside the gate of the inner city, the guards won't stop you, just look.
If you dare to break in, it's okay if you have a legitimate reason, but if you don't have a legitimate reason, the disaster of imprisonment is light, and people's heads will fall at every turn.
Therefore, no one in the capital would go there to find trouble, although the majesty of the palace in the inner city made people curious.
Curiosity is curiosity, life is important.
Now five commoner cooks from all over the capital are about to enter the palace.
On behalf of the Cang Qin Kingdom, he will compete with other people to test his cooking skills!
Can this not be exciting!
At that time, I can still see the emperor, and maybe I can even get a reward.
As for danger
They have sucrose! What are you afraid of! There are also meals that Su Tang can't make, and games that Su Tang can't win
But Su Tang was already packing up his things and preparing to go home.
It's over after the competition, you can't enter the palace right away!
Besides, her brows were always twitching, and she felt that something unsatisfactory was about to happen.
And she thought of a question.
If she appeared to cook in the palace, would she run into Qi Tianyun
At that time, will she pretend not to know her, or will she pretend to be pleasantly surprised!
Su Tang really didn't expect that he would become an acting school!
Before she could figure this out, when she turned around, she saw Huang Yuetong and the others looking at her, including Li Chun from Fengshangguan.
Su Tang asked strangely, "What do you see me doing?"
Huang Yuetong looked at her with anticipation and worry on his face: "Are we going to start preparing for the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet? What kind of food are we going to make then?"
Although the rest of the people did not speak, their expressions clearly meant this.
Good guy, these people have already regarded Su Tang as their backbone.
Obviously, they listened to whatever Su Tang said!
Wake up, everyone is a contestant with the same identity.
